Cozy Coastal Thanksgiving: Your Guide to Hosting, Styling & Gathering
Thanksgiving is all about slowing down, savoring good food, and gathering with the people we love. This year, we’re embracing a cozy coastal twist on the traditional holiday - think sandy neutrals, seashell and pumpkin accents, plush textures, and small thoughtful touches that bring that relaxed beach-house warmth the moment guests walk in.
Whether you’re styling your table, planning your Thanksgiving menu, or setting the perfect mood for your gathering, this guide will help you create a memorable celebration full of seasonal charm and coastal warmth.
Build a Beautiful Table Spread
Your table sets the tone for the entire day, and with just a few curated pieces, you can create a look that’s festive, cozy, and intentionally coastal.
Start with Layers
Our matching table runners and placemats, featuring pumpkins and seashells, bring a subtle nod to both fall and the shore. Layer them together for texture, or let the runner shine on its own with neutral dishware for a simple, relaxed tablescape.
Add Thoughtful Details
Plush pumpkins add softness and a playful harvest feel.
Coasters to sprinkle gratitude throughout the table.
A Thanksgiving tea towel, adorned with pumpkins and fall leaves, can be tucked under a bread basket, draped over a serving tray, or displayed in the kitchen for a seasonal touch.
Vintage votives provide warm, flickering light that instantly makes your space feel cozy and inviting.
Pair with our favorite 100% Natural Beeswax Candlesticks.
Seasonal Serveware
Our “Seasoned with Love” plate, is perfect for appetizers, bread, or a small charcuterie spread, tying in the coastal theme with a whimsical twist.
The “Spread Gratitude” dip tray, adds charm to everything from cranberry sauce to compound butters.
